The big news on the home front lately is that Kris and I have started looking for a house. We went to see a mortgage broker the other day and were basically told we could afford a $250k house, which is of course insane. Sure, we can be approved for a house that expensive, but there is no way we could afford to pay our bills with a mortgage that large. We should be talking to a buyer's agent in the next few days, and I think our real target is going to be a house in the $150-200k range. Neither of us wants to be house poor. Looking at the online real estate listings, I am finding quite a few properties that look interesting. Of course, they could all be crack houses that have been prettied up. We'll see.
